Why Should You Pick Me to Go?

by Michelle, 6th grade student

You should pick me because I’m hard working, confident and I’m a good student. I’m hard working because no matter what kind of room I’m in, I  always do my work. My homeroom class in Riverside, it gets extremely loud and it’s just too much to handle. This year we had to get different teachers. In total, it was six different teachers that we had through the whole year. Everytime we changed teachers the work they would assign us would change. I would always do it and finish it.

The word confident means that you are willing to do anything that is positive, safe, secure, and certain. I am confident when it comes to my school work because no matter what I am doing,  I am positive  and sure that I’m doing it right. I love what I do in school because I sometimes like my classes;  they can be fun. One day you  should come to our school;  you would love it because Tech International takes you in, no matter how you are or how you act. It’s a great school.

At Tech International, we have this thing called TI P.R.I.D.E. The P stands for Plan B , the R stands for resilience, the I stands for integrity, the D stands for dedication, and the E stands for empathy. It is something new to me because it’s a charter school; I never went to a charter school before. I have always attended public schools. Tech International is a school that will teach you all about technology. It’s  international because all of the kids in the school are from different places in New York and also all of us are from different cultures. But we all came together; no one is a stranger in our  school. It's a great place where you can learn new things, there are wonderful teachers, and the way the school is built is pretty. At Tech International the principal Ms. Scott tries to do everything for us and she is the best principal. If it wasn't for this school, I wouldn't be this girl who loves to learn and always learns something new, and always be myself.

I also have to thank my mom because she is the one that told me to go to Tech International. She is also the one who pushes me to be this good, smart, hard working, confident student. So I have to give al the credit her for making me this way. She does what is best for me and I am the way I am because of her. She brought me to this school which isTech International. So I'm just thankful for my mom to do this.

I want to go to this conference because I would get to meet new people and learn about the school Fieldston. This is also new to me because I never went to a school to go to a conference. I'm hoping that I will have a good time and join in things that I don't normally go to. I like to try new things. I'm very excited. I will be a good representative of our school. I will not let other people think that students at T.I. have no manners.  I will be on my best behavior, look good, and not embarress anyone. Most importantly I want people to know that we are a good school.

I think the part of TI P.R.I.D.E  that I represent most is dedication; I am dedicated to what I do in life and I am dedicated to my work and whatever is around me. For example, when it comes to a test, I dedicate myself to study so I can do really good. I really think that I represent  the D in TI P.R.I.D.E because I dedicate myself to a lot of things in my life.
